It accounts for about 25% of all psychiatric hospitalizations. As many as thirteen percent of males and seven percent of females commit suicide (Stone, 1990). Approximately, 69% of people with BPD are also substance abusers (Miller et al., 1993). The causes of BPD are not well understood.

Votes:0 Borderline Personality Disorder Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is one of the most controversial
diagnoses in psychology today. Since it was first introduced in the
DSM, psychologists and psychiatrists have been trying to give the
somewhat amorphous concepts behind BPD a concrete form. Kernberg's
explication of what he calls Borderline Personality
Organization is the most general, while Gunderson, though a psychoanalyst, is considered by many to have taken the most
scientific approach to defining BPD. The Diagnostic Interview for
Borderlines and the DIB-Revised were developed
from research done by Gunderson, Kolb, and Zanarini. Finally, there is
the "official" DSM-IV definition. Some researchers, like Judith Herman, believe that BPD is a
name given to a particular manifestation of po Read More Go to Site

page Updated!! Dutch version Hi, I'm Laura. I have had borderline all my life, but I found a way out. I am very happy I got there, slowly all symptoms of borderline are disappearing and my life is getting easier by the day. When I started therapy in 1994, not the first therapy by the way, I started to find out what borderline was all about. I always thought I was unhappy but nothing more than that. I wasn't able to figure out why, because I seemed to have everything going with me, I looked good and I was bright, so what was it that made it all go wrong? Since 1994 I was more and more able to place everything that was happening now and has happened in the past. I started reading about borderline, but the structure I so clearly felt, was described nowhere. And that's why I decid Read More Go to Site

Personality disorders affect about 10% of the general population. This group of mental disorders is defined by maladaptive personality characteristics that have a consistent and serious effect on work and interpersonal relationships. DSM-IV defines ten categories of personality disorder. Of these, Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is the most frequent in clinical practice. BPD is also one of the most difficult and troubling problems in all of psychiatry. The term "borderline" is a misnomer.

Borderline
Personality Disorder --- A
Therapist-Guided Approach by Michael H. Langley, Ph.D. ISBN 0-8261-8300-X This book represents a seminal contribution to the field of mental
health. In my opinion, it is indispensable reading for any therapist
who ever comes in contact with patients and clients who have borderline
personality disorder (BPD) --- all of us, in other words. Not least is
his contribution in affirmatively diagnosing BPD. My own synthesis from
this book is that when a person has a history of trauma, overarching
feelings of shame, and a reliance on splitting as a defense against
shame, that person has BPD. The whole thing fits together well and
feels right. I have bought extra copies of this book and lend them

Borderline Personality Disorder by Barry Kiehn and Michaela Swales Patients showing the features of Borderline Personality Disorder as
defined in DSM-IV are notoriously difficult to treat (Linehan 1993a). They are difficult
to keep in therapy, frequently fail to respond to our therapeutic efforts and make
considerable demands on the emotional resources of the therapist, particular when suicidal
and parasuicidal behaviours are prominent. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy is an innovative method of treatment
that has been developed specifically to treat this difficult group of patients in a way
which is optimistic and which preserves the morale of the therapist. The technique has been devised by Marsha Linehan at the University

Borderline personality disorder is characterized by poor self-image, great difficulty coping with loneliness and feeling empty. People with this disorder have unstable relationships, highly reactive and intense moods, and impulsive behavior. They are more likely to attempt or commit suicide. Sometimes they harm themselves (for example, cutting or burning) as a form of self-punishment or to combat a numb feeling. At those times, suicide is not the goal.

Votes:0 This page is all about Borderline Personality Disorder and includes my Personal Borderline Story about how it is to live with Borderline Personality Disorder The core disorder in BPD is emotional dysregulation. Emotional dysregulation is viewed as a joint outcome of biological disposition, environmental context, and the transaction between the two during development. The theory asserts that borderline individuals have difficulties in regulating several, if not all, emotions. This systemic dysregulation is produced by emotional vulnerability and by maladaptive and inadequate emotion modulation strategies.
